Troubleshooting
Waders are leaking.
Inspect the waders for punctures or tears. Small punctures can often be repaired with a patch kit. For larger tears, professional repair may be required. Check the seams for any damage.
Waders feel clammy or are not breathing well.
Ensure the waders are clean, as dirt and oils can clog the breathable membrane. Wash the waders with a specialized cleaner. Make sure you are not wearing too many layers underneath, as this can affect breathability.
Straps are slipping.
Tighten the adjustable shoulder straps and waist belt. If the straps are worn or damaged, consider replacing them.
Water is entering through the boots.
Check your wading boots for leaks. Ensure your boots are properly sized for the waders' foot, and the gravel guards are correctly positioned and secured.
